Reminds me of when I tried to start my own pyramid scheme. :smugbiden:.

I printed out 500 flyers advertising a work from home job offer (with the cut off numbers). Said they could make up to 300 to 500 a weak easy. I got a prepaid phone to use as the number. When people called the heard a message about making money "blah, blah, blah". To get started all they had to do is mail a check for $10 and their contact info to a po box for further details.

When they mail the check I would mail them back a letter with the follow instructions.


Make about 200 flyers a weeks and post them shyts in as many locations as you can advertising a work from home offer. I told them emphasize how much one could make working part time. I told them to buy prepaid phone and leave a message instructing them to mail 10 bucks to your address "preferable a po box". If someone sends in the money, I would tell them to write them back with instructions on what I just told them to do :troll:


In one summer I made about $5000. I was only 19 so that was a lot of money to me. I figured it was illegal so eventually I got scared and stopped.

@Illuminatos For the love of God, DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT do this. It's all just a marketing game. They love snatching up young people to play the part of the soldiers.

You won't make any money doing this. You know who will? The cacs that you work for. All that gold and platinum nonsense along with the fancy video presentations is just MARKETING. That's all it is. People love shiny objects and they know that. Promise them riches and they'll do almost anything.

There are one million other things you can do to survive. I was almost sucked into this in 2009. Even went to St. Louis for some cac ass seminar because they had me brainwashed.

Stay the fukk away. :whoa:

Ya'll know I beenyou'll ing for a job recently, still nothing though. So about a week ago I got a text from one of my friends saying his friend recently got a spot open in his company and was looking for some hard workers to make some money part time.

So you know I'm desperate as fukk for money right now so text him back and tell him I'm available. So Sunday I get a call from dude telling me his "very successful" friend is on the line and he wants to speak to me. So we chop it up for a bit I tell him when can we meet and tells me that he, my friend and some other people are having a meeting Monday at 7:30 PM. At this point I'm like what the hell? I tell him cool but he tells me he can't promise me anything.:manny:

Ok so I haul ass all the way from Brooklyn to Manhattan, and reach the place. Here I am thinking it's gonna be a little job interview type meeting with about 4-5 people but I go in the building to the 6th floor and it's a whole fukking room full of people. About 40-50.:dahell:

So I finally meet dude, and the first thing I noticed was how bad the nikka smelled. :heh:

Anyway he tells me that my homeboy forgot he had to go to work so he couldn't make it. :dahell:

So dude tells me what am I specifically interested in doing, and I tell him I'm down to do anything for the summer just to make some cash but I'd prefer sales and customer service. So breh tells me grab a seat were gonna have a presentation and we'll talk after. :beli:

So I grab a seat and they bring out this former Red Sox player, Steve or Steven something I can't remember the dude's name and I looked on Wikipedia and I can't find him either so... :skip:

So dude goes on and on about making money and how people work for someone else the entire week and don't get to enjoy themselves. Dude says he didn't like playing baseball because he was on the field all the time and had no time to enjoy himself and basically saying that people live for the weekends. :pachaha:

So the shyt is sort of catching my interest and I'm thinking dude is some sort of entrepreneur and all that shyt.

Now dude starts playing a video of some company called Amway. It wasn't this video but it was close to it.



After the video is done I'm like :patrice::pachaha:and finally realize this is one of them pyramid schemes.

So at this point I'm just like :mjlol: at how I actually ended up in one of these. Some kid gets up and starts walking out and the speaker's like "Have a good night" :russ:When dude reaches the door he says "It's ok he has to go work for someone in the morning I don't.":scust:

At that point I'm not really fukking with the vibe in the room and I'm ready to leave. So we see a bunch of nikkas in the room that they're calling shyt like "Sapphire" "Emerald" "Gold" members. So automatically I remember a thread on the Coli where dudes were talking about pyramid schemes and mentioned "gold" and silver" members. :mjlol::ohhh:

So presentation ends I'm sort of skeptical but I'm desperate for some money now. I tell dude I need some money so I'll do this shyt part time for the summer.

Dude hands me a sealed folder and a video of some dude who he said started doing this at 18 and retired at 25.:patrice: :mjlol::stopitslime::dead::heh:

So anyway I set up an "appointment" with the nikka and this bytch at some Panera Bread restaurant at 8 PM on Wednesday. I'm not expecting it to go anywhere tbh but like I said I'm desperate to make money so I'm about willing to give it a shot. If I have to pay for anything though I'm chucking this nikka and my homeboy in the bushes. :scust:

Of course you have to pay. Tell them to front you the start up, and youll pay it when you get paid. Theyll laugh at you.

Sounds like you were engaging in mail fraud. You're lucky the feds didn't tear you a new anus, breh.
